249 Ironman Wales 2019 Special! - a podcast by Rob Wilby

We bring you all of the emotion from Ironman Wales 2019 in this week’s show. We’ve got interviews with winners Simone Mitchell and Arnaud Guilloux, plus Manon Genet who was second in the women’s race, and Laura Siddall who was 3rd. We’ve got Dylan McNeice from NZ who was 5th after leading out of the water and for much of the first half of the bike, Joe Skipper who unfortunately ended up DQ despite the fastest run of the day, and Phil Graves who finished 10th after leading off the bike. We’ve also got Nathan Ford, the overall age group winner.

You’ll hear the excitement, the elation, the tears and the disappointment from all of the big names at the finish line. And listen out for a pre-race interview with Lucy Gossage about why she wanted to return to Tenby one last time and an interview with Declan Byrne too – the Regional Director for Ironman UK and Ireland about future plans for the major Ironman events in the region
